Question 1.
In the figure, AB || CD and ∠1 and ∠2 are in the ratio 3 : 2. Determine all angles from 1 to 8.

Solution:
AB || CD and l is transversal ∠1 : ∠2 = 3 : 2
Let ∠1 = 3x
Then ∠2 = 2x
But ∠1 + ∠2 = 180° (Linear pair)
∴ 3x + 2x = 180° ⇒ 5x = 180°
⇒ x = \(\frac { { 180 }^{ \circ } }{ 5 }\)  = 36°
∴ ∠1 = 3x = 3 x 36° = 108°
∠2 = 2x = 2 x 36° = 72°
Now ∠1 = ∠3 and ∠2 = ∠4 (Vertically opposite angles)
∴ ∠3 = 108° and ∠4 = 72°
∠1 = ∠5 and ∠2 = ∠6 (Corresponding angles)
∴ ∠5 = 108°, ∠6 = 72°
Similarly, ∠4 = ∠8 and
∠3 = ∠7
∴ ∠8 = 72° and ∠7 = 108°
Hence, ∠1 = 108°, ∠2= 72°
∠3 = 108°, ∠4 = 72°
∠5 = 108°, ∠6 = 72°
∠7 = 108°, ∠8 = 12°

Question 2.
In the figure, l, m and n are parallel lines intersected by transversal p at X, Y and Z respectively. Find ∠l, ∠2 and ∠3.

Solution:
l || m || n and p is then transversal which intersects then at X, Y and Z respectively ∠4 = 120°
∠2 = ∠4 (Alternate angles)
∴ ∠2 = 120°
But ∠3 + ∠4 = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ ∠3 + 120° = 180°
⇒ ∠3 = 180° – 120°
∴ ∠3 = 60°
But ∠l = ∠3 (Corresponding angles)
∴ ∠l = 60°
Hence ∠l = 60°, ∠2 = 120°, ∠3 = 60°

Question 3.
In the figure, if AB || CD and CD || EF, find ∠ACE.

Solution:
Given : In the figure, AB || CD and CD || EF
∠BAC = 70°, ∠CEF = 130°
∵ EF || CD
∴ ∠ECD + ∠CEF = 180° (Co-interior angles)
⇒ ∠ECD + 130° = 180°
∴ ∠ECD = 180° – 130° = 50°
∵ BA || CD
∴ ∠BAC = ∠ACD (Alternate angles)
∴ ∠ACD = 70° (∵ ∠BAC = 70°)
∵ ∠ACE = ∠ACD – ∠ECD = 70° – 50° = 20°

Question 4.
In the figure, state which lines are parallel and why.

Solution:
In the figure,
∵ ∠ACD = ∠CDE = 100°
But they are alternate angles
∴ AC || DE

Question 5.
In the figure, if l || m,n|| p and ∠1 = 85°, find ∠2.

Solution:
In the figure, l || m, n|| p and ∠1 = 85°
∵ n || p
∴ ∠1 = ∠3 (Corresponding anlges)
But ∠1 = 85°
∴ ∠3 = 85°
∵ m || 1
∠3 + ∠2 = 180° (Sum of co-interior angles)
⇒ 85° + ∠2 = 180°
⇒ ∠2 = 180° – 85° = 95°

Question 6.
If two straight lines are perpendicular to the same line, prove that they are parallel to each other.
Solution:

Question 7.
Two unequal angles of a parallelogram are in the ratio 2:3. Find all its angles in degrees.
Solution:
In ||gm ABCD,

∠A and ∠B are unequal
and ∠A : ∠B = 2 : 3
Let ∠A = 2x, then
∠B = 3x
But ∠A + ∠B = 180° (Co-interior angles)
∴ 2x + 3x = 180°
⇒ 5x = 180°
⇒ x = \(\frac { { 180 }^{ \circ } }{ 5 }\)  = 36°
∴ ∠A = 2x = 2 x 36° = 72°
∠B = 3x = 3 x 36° = 108°
But ∠A = ∠C and ∠B = ∠D (Opposite angles of a ||gm)
∴ ∠C = 72° and ∠D = 108°
Hence ∠A = 72°, ∠B = 108°, ∠C = 72°, ∠D = 108°

Question 8.
In each of the two lines is perpendicular to the same line, what kind of lines are they to each other?
Solution:
AB ⊥ line l and CD ⊥ line l

∴ ∠B = 90° and ∠D = 90°
∴ ∠B = ∠D
But there are corresponding angles
∴ AB || CD

Question 9.
In the figure, ∠1 = 60° and ∠2 = (\(\frac { 2 }{ 3 }\))3 a right angle. Prove that l || m.

Solution:
In the figure, a transversal n intersects two lines l and m
∠1 = 60° and
∠2 = \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 }\) rd of a right angle 2
= \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 }\) x 90° = 60°
∴ ∠1 = ∠2
But there are corresponding angles
∴ l || m

Question 10.
In the figure, if l || m || n and ∠1 = 60°, find ∠2.

Solution:
In the figure,

l || m || n and a transversal p, intersects them at P, Q and R respectively
∠1 = 60°
∴ ∠1 = ∠3 (Corresponding angles)
∴ ∠3 = 60°
But ∠3 + ∠4 = 180° (Linear pair)
60° + ∠4 = 180° ⇒ ∠4 = 180° – 60°
∴ ∠4 = 120°
But ∠2 = ∠4 (Alternate angles)
∴ ∠2 = 120°

Question 11.
Prove that the straight lines perpendicular to the same straight line are parallel to one another.
Solution:
Given : l is a line, AB ⊥ l and CD ⊥ l

Question 12.
The opposite sides of a quadrilateral are parallel. If one angle of the quadrilateral is 60°, find the other angles.
Solution:
In quadrilateral ABCD, AB || DC and AD || BC and ∠A = 60°

∵ AD || BC and AB || DC
∴ ABCD is a parallelogram
∴ ∠A + ∠B = 180° (Co-interior angles)
60° + ∠B = 180°
⇒ ∠B = 180°-60°= 120°
But ∠A = ∠C and ∠B = ∠D (Opposite angles of a ||gm)
∴ ∠C = 60° and ∠D = 120°
Hence ∠B = 120°, ∠C = 60° and ∠D = 120°

Question 13.
Two lines AB and CD intersect at O. If ∠AOC + ∠COB + ∠BOD = 270°, find the measure of ∠AOC, ∠COB, ∠BOD and ∠DOA.
Solution:
Two lines AB and CD intersect at O
and ∠AOC + ∠COB + ∠BOD = 270°
But ∠AOC + ∠COB + ∠BOD + ∠DOA = 360° (Angles at a point)

∴ 270° + ∠DOA = 360°
⇒ ∠DOA = 360° – 270° = 90°
But ∠DOA = ∠BOC (Vertically opposite angles)
∴ ∠BOC = 90°
But ∠DOA + ∠BOD = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ 90° + ∠BOD = 180°
∴ ∠BOD= 180°-90° = 90° ,
But ∠BOD = ∠AOC (Vertically opposite angles)
∴ ∠AOC = 90°
Hence ∠AOC = 90°,
∠COB = 90°,
∠BOD = 90° and ∠DOA = 90°

Question 14.
In the figure, p is a transversal to lines m and n, ∠2 = 120° and ∠5 = 60°. Prove that m || n.

Solution:
Given : p is a transversal to the lines m and n
Forming ∠l, ∠2, ∠3, ∠4, ∠5, ∠6, ∠7 and ∠8
∠2 = 120°, and ∠5 = 60°
To prove : m || n
Proof : ∠2 + ∠3 = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ 120°+ ∠3 = 180°
⇒ ∠3 = 180°- 120° = 60°
But ∠5 = 60°
∴ ∠3 = ∠5
But there are alternate angles
∴ m || n

Question 15.
In the figure, transversal l, intersects two lines m and n, ∠4 = 110° and ∠7 = 65°. Is m || n?

Solution:
A transversal l, intersects two lines m and n, forming ∠1, ∠2, ∠3, ∠4, ∠5, ∠6, ∠7 and ∠8
∠4 = 110° and ∠7 = 65°
To prove : Whether m || n or not
Proof : ∠4 = 110° and ∠7 = 65°
∠7 = ∠5 (Vertically opposite angles)
∴ ∠5 = 65°
Now ∠4 + ∠5 = 110° + 65° = 175°
∵ Sum of co-interior angles ∠4 and ∠5 is not 180°.
∴ m is not parallel to n

Question 16.
Which pair of lines in the figure are parallel? Give reasons.

Solution:
Given : In the figure, ∠A = 115°, ∠B = 65°, ∠C = 115° and ∠D = 65°
∵ ∠A + ∠B = 115°+ 65°= 180°
But these are co-interior angles,
∴ AD || BC
Similarly, ∠A + ∠D = 115° + 65° = 180°
∴ AB || DC

Question 17.
If l, m, n are three lines such that l ||m and n ⊥ l, prove that n ⊥ m.
Solution:
Given : l, m, n are three lines such that l || m and n ⊥ l

To prove : n ⊥ m
Proof : ∵ l || m and n is the transversal.
∴ ∠l = ∠2 (Corresponding angles)
But ∠1 = 90° (∵ n⊥l)
∴ ∠2 = 90°
∴ n ⊥ m

(vi) If a transversal intersects a pair of lines in such away that the sum of interior angles on the same side of transversal is 180°, then the lines are parallel.

Question 20.
In the figure, AB || CD || EF and GH || KL. Find ∠HKL.

Solution:
In the figure, AB || CD || EF and KL || HG Produce LK and GH

∵ AB || CD and HK is transversal
∴ ∠1 = 25° (Alternate angles)
∠3 = 60° (Corresponding angles)
and ∠3 = ∠4 (Corresponding angles)
= 60°
But ∠4 + ∠5 = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ 60° + ∠5 = 180°
⇒ ∠5 = 180° – 60° = 120°
∴ ∠HKL = ∠1 + ∠5 = 25° + 120° = 145°

Question 21.
In the figure, show that AB || EF.

Solution:
Given : In the figure, AB || EF
∠BAC = 57°, ∠ACE = 22°
∠ECD = 35° and ∠CEF =145°
To prove : AB || EF,
Proof : ∠ECD + ∠CEF = 35° + 145°
= 180°
But these are co-interior angles
∴ EF || CD
But AB || CD
∴ AB || EF

Solution:
In the figure, PQ || AB and PR || BC
∠QPR = 102°
Produce BA to meet PR at D

∵ PQ || AB or DB
∴ ∠QPR = ∠ADR (Corresponding angles)
∴∠ADR = 102° or ∠BDR = 102°
∵ PR || BC
∴ ∠BDR + ∠DBC = 180°
(Sum of co-interior angles) ⇒ 102° + ∠DBC = 180°
⇒ ∠DBC = 180° – 102° = 78°
⇒ ∠ABC = 78°

Question 23.

Proof: In figure (i) BGEH is a quadrilateral
∠BHE = 90° and ∠BGE = 90°
But sum of angles of a quadrilateral is 360°
∴ ∠HBG + ∠HEG = 360° – (90° + 90°)
= 360° – 180°= 180°
∴ ∠ABC and ∠DEF are supplementary
In figure (if) in quadrilateral BGEH,
∠BHE = 90° and ∠HEG = 90°
∴ ∠HBG + ∠HEG = 360° – (90° + 90°)
= 360°- 180° = 180° …(i)
But ∠HEF + ∠HEG = 180° …(ii) (Linear pair)
From (i) and (ii)
∴ ∠HEF = ∠HBG
⇒ ∠DEF = ∠ABC
Hence ∠ABC and ∠DEF are equal or supplementary

Solution:
Given : In the figure, AB || CD
P is a point between AB and CD PD
and PB are joined
To prove : ∠APB + ∠CDP = ∠DPB
Construction : Through P, draw PQ || AB or CD

Proof: ∵ AB || PQ
∴ ∠ABP = BPQ …(i) (Alternate angles)
Similarly,
CD || PQ
∴ ∠CDP = ∠DPQ …(ii)
(Alternate angles)
Adding (i) and (ii)
∠ABP + ∠CDP = ∠BPQ + ∠DPQ
Hence ∠ABP + ∠CDP = ∠DPB

Question 25.
In the figure, AB || CD and P is any point shown in the figure. Prove that:
∠ABP + ∠BPD + ∠CDP = 360°

To prove : ∠ABP + ∠BPD + ∠CDP = 360°
Construction : Through P, draw PQ || AB and CD

Proof : ∵ AB || PQ
∴ ∠ABP+ ∠BPQ= 180° ……(i) (Sum of co-interior angles)
Similarly, CD || PQ
∴ ∠QPD + ∠CDP = 180° …(ii)
Adding (i) and (ii)
∠ABP + ∠BPQ + ∠QPD + ∠CDP
= 180°+ 180° = 360°
⇒ ∠ABP + ∠BPD + ∠CDP = 360°

Question 26.
In the figure, arms BA and BC of ∠ABC are respectively parallel to arms ED and EF of ∠DEF. Prove that ∠ABC = ∠DEF.

Solution:
Given : In ∠ABC and ∠DEF. Their arms are parallel such that BA || ED and BC || EF
To prove : ∠ABC = ∠DEF
Construction : Produce BC to meet DE at G
Proof: AB || DE
∴ ∠ABC = ∠DGH…(i) (Corresponding angles)

BC or BH || EF
∴ ∠DGH = ∠DEF (ii) (Corresponding angles)
From (i) and (ii)
∠ABC = ∠DEF

Question 27.
In the figure, arms BA and BC of ∠ABC are respectively parallel to arms ED and EF of ∠DEF. Prove that ∠ABC + ∠DEF = 180°.

Solution:
Given: In ∠ABC = ∠DEF
BA || ED and BC || EF
To prove: ∠ABC = ∠DEF = 180°
Construction : Produce BC to H intersecting ED at G

Proof: ∵ AB || ED
∴ ∠ABC = ∠EGH …(i) (Corresponding angles)
∵ BC or BH || EF
∠EGH || ∠DEF = 180° (Sum of co-interior angles)
⇒ ∠ABC + ∠DEF = 180° [From (i)]
Hence proved.

Question 1.
One angle is equal to three times its supplement. The measure of the angle is
(a) 130°
(b) 135°
(c) 90°
(d) 120°
Solution:
Let required angle = x
Then its supplement = (180° – x)
x = 3(180° – x) = 540° – 3x
⇒ x + 3x = 540°
⇒ 4x = 540°
⇒ x = \(\frac { { 540 }^{ \circ } }{ 4 }\)  = 135°
∴ Required angle = 135° (b)

(a) 86°
(b) 90°
(c) 94°
(d) 137°
Solution:
Sum of angles at a point O = 360°
Sum of three angles ∠AOC + ∠COB + ∠BOD = 274°

∴ Fourth angle ∠AOD = 360° – 274°
= 86° (a)

(a) 63°
(b) 117°
(c) 17°
(d) 153°
Solution:
CD is a line
∴ ∠BOD + ∠BOC = 180° (Linear pair)

⇒ 63° + ∠BOC = 180°
⇒ ∠BOC = 180° – 63°
∴ ∠BOC =117° (b)

(c) 36°
(d) none of these
Solution:
∵ POQ is a straight line
∴ ∠POR + ∠QOR = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ 3x + 2x + 10° = 180°

(c) 95°
(d) 100°

Solution:
AOB is a straight line,
OC and OD are rays on it
and ∠AOC + ∠BOD = 85°
But ∠AOC + ∠BOD + ∠COD = 180°
⇒ 85° + ∠COD = 180°
∠COD = 180° – 85° = 95° (c)

Question 7.
In the figure, the value of y is
(a) 20°
(b) 30°
(c) 45°
(d) 60°

Solution:
In the figure,

y = x (Vertically opposite angles)
∠1 = 3x
∠2 = 3x
∴ 2(x + 3x + 2x) = 360° (Angles at a point)
2x + 6x + 4x = 360°
12x = 360° ⇒ x = \(\frac { { 360 }^{ \circ } }{ 12 }\)  = 30°
∴ y = x = 30° (b)

(a) 12
(b) 15
(c) 20
(d) 30

Solution:
∠1 = 3x+ 10 (Vertically opposite angles)
But x + ∠1 + ∠2 = 180°

⇒ x + 3x + 10° + 90° = 180°
⇒ 4x = 180° – 10° – 90° = 80°
x = \(\frac { { 80 }^{ \circ } }{ 4 }\) = 20   (c)

Question 9.

Solution:
In the figure,
(i) a + b = d + c
a° = d°
b° = e°
c°= f°
(ii) a + b + e = 180°
a + e + c = 180°
⇒ a + c + e = 180°
(iii) b + f= e + c

(d) 180°
Solution:
Two lines AB and CD intersect at O

∠AOC + ∠COB + ∠BOD = 270° …(i)
But ∠AOC + ∠COB + ∠BOD + ∠DOA = 360° …(ii)
Subtracting (i) from (ii),
∠DOA = 360° – 270° = 90°
But ∠DOA + ∠AOC = 180°
∴ ∠AOC = 180° – 90° = 90° (c)

∠BHS = 110°, ∠ABC = x
∵ PQ || RS,
∴ ∠AEF = ∠1 = 95° (Corresponding anlges)
But ∠1 + ∠2 = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ ∠2 = 180° – ∠1 = 180° – 95° = 85°
In ∆AGH,
Ext. ∠BHS = ∠2 +x
⇒ 110° = 85° + x
⇒ x= 110°-85° = 25° (b)

Question 14.
In the figure, if l1 || l2, what is the value of x?
(a) 90°
(b) 85°
(c) 75°
(d) 70°

Solution:
In the figure,

∠1 = 58° (Vertically opposite angles)
Similarly, ∠2 = 37°
∵ l₁ || l₂, EF is transversal
∠GEF + EFD = 180° (Co-interior angles)
⇒ ∠2 + ∠l +x = 180°
⇒ 37° + 58° + x = 180°
⇒ 95° + x= 180°
x = 180°-95° = 85° (b)

Question 15.
In the figure, if l₁ || l₂, what is x + y in terms of w and z?
(a) 180-w + z
(b) 180° + w- z
(c) 180 -w- z
(d) 180 + w + z

Solution:
In the figure, l₁ || l₂

p and q are transversals
∴ w + x = 180° ⇒ x = 180° – w (Co-interior angle)
z = y (Alternate angles)
∴ x + y = 180° – w + z (a)

Question 16.
In the figure, if l₁ || l₂, what is the value of y?
(a) 100
(b) 120
(c) 135

(a) 90 + x
(b) 90 + 2x
(c) 90 – \(\frac { x }{ 2 }\)
(d) 90 – 2x

Solution:
In the figure,

l₁ || l₂ and l₃ || l₄ and m is the angle bisector
∴ ∠2 = ∠3 = y
∵ l₁ || l₂
∠1 = x (Corresponding angles)
∵ l₃ || l₄
∴ ∠1 + (∠2 + ∠3) = 180° (Co-interior angles)
⇒ x + 2y= 180°
⇒ 2y= 180°-x
⇒ y = \(\frac { { 540 }^{ \circ }-x }{ 4 }\)
= 90° – \(\frac { x }{ 2 }\) (c)

Question 18.
In the figure, if 11| m, what is the value of x?
(a) 60
(b) 50
(c) 45
d) 30

Solution:
In the figure, l || m and n is the transversal

⇒ y = 25°
But 2y + 25° = x+ 15°
(Vertically opposite angles) ⇒ x = 2y + 25° – 15° = 2y+ 10°
= 2 x 25°+10° = 50°+10° = 60° (a)

Question 19.
In the figure, if AB || HF and DE || FG, then the measure of ∠FDE is
(a) 108°
(b) 80°
(c) 100°
(d) 90°

Solution:
In the figure,
AB || HF, DE || FG

∴ HF || AB
∠1 =28° (Corresponding angles)
But ∠1 + ∠FDE + 72° – 180° (Angles of a straight line)
⇒ 28° + ∠FDE + 72° = 180°
⇒ ∠FDE + 100° = 180°
⇒ ∠FDE = 180° – 100 = 80° (b)

Question 20.
In the figure, if lines l and m are parallel, then x =
(a) 20°
(b) 45°
(c) 65°
(d) 85°

Solution:
In the figure, l || m

∴ ∠1 =65° (Corresponding angles)
In ∆BCD,
Ext. ∠1 = x + 20°
⇒ 65° = x + 20°
⇒ x = 65° – 20°
⇒ x = 45° (b)

Question 21.
In the figure, if AB || CD, then x =
(a) 100°
(b) 105°
(c) 110°
(d) 115°

Solution:
In the figure, AB || CD
Through P, draw PQ || AB or CD

∠A + ∠1 = 180° (Co-interior angles)
⇒ 132° + ∠1 = 180°
⇒ ∠1 = 180°- 132° = 48°
∴ ∠2 = 148° – ∠1 = 148° – 48° = 100°
∵ DQ || CP
∴ ∠2 = x (Corresponding angles)
∴ x = 100° (a)

Question 22.
In tlie figure, if lines l and in are parallel lines, then x =
(a) 70°
(b) 100°
(c) 40°
(d) 30°

Solution:
In the figure, l || m

∠l =70° (Corresponding angles)
In ∆DEF,
Ext. ∠l = x + 30°
⇒ 70° = x + 30°
⇒ x = 70° – 30° = 40° (c)

Question 23.
In the figure, if l || m, then x =
(a) 105°
(b) 65°
(c) 40°
(d) 25°

Solution:
In the figure,
l || m and n is the transversal

∠1 = 65° (Alternate angles)
In ∆GHF,
Ext. x = ∠1 + 40° = 65° + 40°
⇒ x = 105°
∴ x = 105° (a)

Question 24.
In the figure, if lines l and m are parallel, then the value of x is
(a) 35°
(b) 55°
(c) 65°

In the figure, l || m
and PQ is the transversal

∠1 = 90°
In ∆EFG,
Ext. ∠G = ∠E + ∠F
⇒ 125° = x + ∠1 = x + 90°
⇒ x = 125° – 90° = 35° (a)

Question 25.
Two complementary angles are such that two times the measure of one is equal to three times the measure of the other. The measure of the smaller angle is
(a) 45°
(b) 30°
(c) 36°
(d) none of these
Solution:
Let first angle = x
Then its complementary angle = 90° – x
∴ 2x = 3(90° – x)
⇒ 2x = 270° – 3x
⇒ 2x + 3x = 270°
⇒ 5x = 270°
⇒ x = \(\frac { { 270 }^{ \circ } }{ 5 }\)  = 54°
∴ second angle = 90° – 54° = 36°
∴ smaller angle = 36° (c)

Question 26.

Solution:

Question 27.
In the figure, AB || CD || EF and GH || KL.
The measure of ∠HKL is
(a) 85°
(b) 135°
(c) 145°
(d) 215°

Solution:
In the figure, AB || CD || EF and GH || KL and GH is product to meet AB in L.

∵ AB || CD
∴ ∠1 = 25° (Alternate angle)
and GH || KL
∴ ∠4 = 60° (Corresponding angles)
∠5 = ∠4 = 60° (Vertically opposite angle)
∠5 + ∠2 = 180° (Co-interior anlges)
∴ ⇒ 60° + ∠2 = 180°
∠2 = 180° – 60° = 120°
Now ∠HKL = ∠1 + ∠2 = 25° + 120°
= 145° (c)

Question 28.
AB and CD are two parallel lines. PQ cuts AB and CD at E and F respectively. EL is the bisector of ∠FEB. If ∠LEB = 35°, then ∠CFQ will be

(b) 70°
(c) 110°
(d) 130°
Solution:
AB || CD and PQ is the transversal EL is the bisector of ∠FEB and ∠LEB = 35°

∴ ∠FEB = 2 x 35° = 70°
∵ AB || CD
∴ ∠FEB + ∠EFD = 180°
(Co-interior angles)
70° + ∠EFD = 180°
∴ ∠EFD = 180°-70°= 110°
But ∠CFQ = ∠EFD
(Vertically opposite angles)
∴ ∠CFQ =110° (c)

Question 29.
In the figure, if line segment AB is parallel to the line segment CD, what is the value of y?
(a) 12
(b) 15
(c) 18
(d) 20

BD is transversal
∴ ∠ABD + ∠BDC = 180° (Co-interior angles)
⇒y + 2y+y + 5y = 180°
⇒ 9y = 180° ⇒ y = \(\frac { { 180 }^{ \circ } }{ 9 }\)  = 20° (d)

Question 30.
In the figure, if CP || DQ, then the measure of x is
(a) 130°
(b) 105°
(c) 175°
(d) 125°

Solution:
In the figure, CP || DQ
BA is transversal
Produce PC to meet BA at D

∵ QB || PD
∴ ∠D = 105° (Corresponding angles)
In ∆ADC,
Ext. ∠ACP = ∠CDA + ∠DAC

Median = \(\frac { n+1 }{ 2 } \) th term = \(\frac { 15+1 }{ 2 } \)
= \(\frac { 16 }{ 2 } \)th term = 8th term = 35 kg
By replacing 44 kg by 46 kg and 27 kg by 25 kg we get new order,
25, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 34, 35, 36, 37, 41, 42, 43, 45, 46

Solution:
Median = 63
29, 32, 48, 50, x, x + 2, 72, 78, 84, 95
Here n = 10 which is even
median = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \left[ \frac { n }{ 2 } th\quad term+\left( \frac { n }{ 2 } +1 \right) th\quad term \right] \)
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \left[ \frac { 10 }{ 2 } th\quad term+\left( \frac { 10 }{ 2 } +1 \right) th\quad term \right] \)
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \) [5th term + 6th term]
= \(\frac { 16 }{ 2 } \) [x+x+2] = \(\frac { 2x + 2 }{ 2 } \) = x + 1
x + 1 = 63 = x = 63 – 1 = 62
Hence x = 62

Question 1.
Define a triangle.
Solution:
A figure bounded by three lines segments in a plane is called a triangle.

Question 2.
Write the sum of the angles of an obtuse triangle.
Solution:
The sum of angles of an obtuse triangle is 180°.

Question 3.
In ∆ABC, if ∠B = 60°, ∠C = 80° and the bisectors of angles ∠ABC and ∠ACB meet at a point O, then find the measure of ∠BOC.
Solution:
In ∆ABC, ∠B = 60°, ∠C = 80°
OB and OC are the bisectors of ∠B and ∠C
∵ ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° (Sum of angles of a triangle)
⇒ ∠A + 60° + 80° = 180°
⇒ ∠A + 140° = 180°
∴ ∠A = 180°- 140° = 40°

= 90° + – x 40° = 90° + 20° = 110°

Question 4.
If the angles of a triangle are in the ratio 2:1:3. Then find the measure of smallest angle.
Solution:
Sum of angles of a triangle = 180°
Ratio in the angles = 2 : 1 : 3
Let first angle = 2x
Second angle = x
and third angle = 3x
∴ 2x + x + 3x = 180° ⇒ 6x = 180°
∴ x = \(\frac { { 180 }^{ \circ } }{ 6 }\)  = 30°
∴ First angle = 2x = 2 x 30° = 60°
Second angle = x = 30°
and third angle = 3x = 3 x 30° = 90°
Hence angles are 60°, 30°, 90°

Question 5.
State exterior angle theorem.
Solution:
Given : In ∆ABC, side BC is produced to D

To prove : ∠ACD = ∠A + ∠B
Proof: In ∆ABC,
∠A + ∠B + ∠ACB = 180° …(i) (Sum of angles of a triangle)
and ∠ACD + ∠ACB = 180° …(ii) (Linear pair)
From (i) and (ii)
∠ACD + ∠ACB = ∠A + ∠B + ∠ACB
∠ACD = ∠A + ∠B
Hence proved.

Question 6.
The sum of two angles of a triangle is equal to its third angle. Determine the measure of the third angle.
Solution:
In ∆ABC,
∠A + ∠C = ∠B

But ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° (Sum of angles of a triangle)
∴ ∠B + ∠A + ∠C = 180°
⇒ ∠B + ∠B = 180°
⇒ 2∠B = 180°
⇒ ∠B = \(\frac { { 180 }^{ \circ } }{ 2 }\)  = 90°
∴ Third angle = 90°

Question 7.
In the figure, if AB || CD, EF || BC, ∠BAC = 65° and ∠DHF = 35°, find ∠AGH.

Solution:
Given : In figure, AB || CD, EF || BC ∠BAC = 65°, ∠DHF = 35°

∵ EF || BC
∴ ∠A = ∠ACH (Alternate angle)
∴ ∠ACH = 65°
∵∠GHC = ∠DHF
(Vertically opposite angles)
∴ ∠GHC = 35°
Now in ∆GCH,
Ext. ∠AGH = ∠GCH + ∠GHC
= 65° + 35° = 100°

Question 8.
In the figure, if AB || DE and BD || FG such that ∠FGH = 125° and ∠B = 55°, find x and y.

Solution:
In the figure, AB || DF, BD || FG

∠FGH = 125° and ∠B = 55°
∠FGH + FGE = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ 125° + y – 180°
⇒ y= 180°- 125° = 55°
∵ BA || FD and BD || FG
∠B = ∠F = 55°
Now in ∆EFG,
∠F + ∠FEG + ∠FGE = 180°
(Angles of a triangle)
⇒ 55° + x + 55° = 180°
⇒ x+ 110°= 180°
∴ x= 180°- 110° = 70°
Hence x = 70, y = 55°

Question 9.
If the angles A, B and C of ∆ABC satisfy the relation B – A = C – B, then find the measure of ∠B.
Solution:
In ∆ABC,
∠A + ∠B + ∠C= 180° …(i)
and B – A = C – B

⇒ B + B = A + C ⇒ 2B = A + C
From (i),
B + 2B = 180° ⇒ 3B = 180°
∠B = \(\frac { { 180 }^{ \circ } }{ 3 }\) = 60°
Hence ∠B = 60°

Question 10.
In ∆ABC, if bisectors of ∠ABC and ∠ACB intersect at O at angle of 120°, then find the measure of ∠A.
Solution:
In ∆ABC, bisectors of ∠B and ∠C intersect at O and ∠BOC = 120°

But ∠BOC = 90°+ \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\)
90°+ \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) ∠A= 120°
⇒ \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) ∠A= 120°-90° = 30°
∴ ∠A = 2 x 30° = 60°

Question 11.
If the side BC of ∆ABC is produced on both sides, then write the difference between the sum of the exterior angles so formed and ∠A.
Solution:
In ∆ABC, side BC is produced on both sides forming exterior ∠ABE and ∠ACD
Ext. ∠ABE = ∠A + ∠ACB
and Ext. ∠ACD = ∠ABC + ∠A

Adding we get,
∠ABE + ∠ACD = ∠A + ∠ACB + ∠A + ∠ABC
⇒ ∠ABE + ∠ACD – ∠A = ∠A 4- ∠ACB + ∠A + ∠ABC – ∠A (Subtracting ∠A from both sides)
= ∠A + ∠ABC + ∠ACB = ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° (Sum of angles of a triangle)

Question 12.
In a triangle ABC, if AB = AC and AB is produced to D such that BD = BC, find ∠ACD: ∠ADC.
Solution:
In ∆ABC, AB = AC
AB is produced to D such that BD = BC
DC are joined
In ∆ABC, AB = AC
∴ ∠ABC = ∠ACB
In ∆ BCD, BD = BC
∴ ∠BDC = ∠BCD
and Ext. ∠ABC = ∠BDC + ∠BCD = 2∠BDC (∵ ∠BDC = ∠BCD)
⇒ ∠ACB = 2∠BCD (∵ ∠ABC = ∠ACB)
Adding ∠BDC to both sides
⇒ ∠ACB + ∠BDC = 2∠BDC + ∠BDC
⇒ ∠ACB + ∠BCD = 3 ∠BDC (∵ ∠BDC = ∠BCD)
⇒ ∠ACB = 3∠BDC

Question 13.
In the figure, side BC of AABC is produced to point D such that bisectors of ∠ABC and ∠ACD meet at a point E. If ∠BAC = 68°, find ∠BEC.

Solution:
In the figure,

side BC of ∆ABC is produced to D such that bisectors of ∠ABC and ∠ACD meet at E
∠BAC = 68°
In ∆ABC,
Ext. ∠ACD = ∠A + ∠B
⇒ \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) ∠ACD = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) ∠A + \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) ∠B
⇒ ∠2= \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) ∠A + ∠1 …(i)
But in ∆BCE,
Ext. ∠2 = ∠E + ∠l
⇒ ∠E + ∠l = ∠2 = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) ∠A + ∠l [From (i)]
⇒ ∠E = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) ∠A = \(\frac { { 68 }^{ \circ } }{ 2 }\)  =34°
